Oh, for God’s sake! This is just stupid. Saban had nothing to do with that 2019 championship, except to be our bitch in Tuscaloosa.

if you don't think Saban's elevation of LSU to championship status has had residual effects that continue to this day, you're just in denial.

ok, yes, we beat them by 5 points in Tuscaloosa in '19 with our best team in a generation, perhaps ever. And it was great.

But that's our only win in the last 10 meetings.

'19 was great, but we followed it up with a 38 point loss this year. And their last 5 wins against us have been by a combined 148-43, including two shutouts in Baton Rouge.

So hang your hat on '19 if you like, but it's been one outlier in a decade of failure.

If you want to talk about being someone's bitch, Alabama has outscored us by 100 in the past 6 meetings. That's an average margin of victory of 16.7 points per game. We've scored 89 -- meaning we averaged a bit less than 15 ppg. They've essentially beaten us 31 or 32 to 15 for the past 6 years. 46 of our 89 points came in one game. So for those other 5 games we couldn't even average a touchdown and a field goal.

To add some context, our cumulative margin of victory over Ole Miss the past 6 years is 66. Our cumulative margin of victory over Arkansas is 80. Alabama owns our arse much harder than we own the bottom dwellers in our division like Ole Miss and Arky. That is sad.
